Description

  The present invention separates the delivery delivered to the delivery location designated by the client from the delivery management system of the delivery company that can hand over the package to the delivery company and return the consideration described in the specific information on the delivery slip to the client. And a delivery slip printing program used therefor.

  There is a delivery company that delivers packages to the delivery location designated by the client. Among such delivery companies, large-scale delivery companies that deliver a large number of packages nationwide every day have transportation means (periodic flights) that regularly move between several collection and delivery bases. The package is delivered to the delivery location designated by the client while relaying the package between the sites. For example, a package brought into a contract store of a delivery company is once transported to a predetermined collection / delivery base having jurisdiction over the area. The package is then transported between the collection and delivery bases by the above transportation means (regular flights) to the collection and delivery base having jurisdiction over the delivery place designated by the client, and finally delivered to the delivery place by the driver. Delivery of such complicated packages is centrally managed by a delivery management system (server) unique to the delivery company.

  Specifically, a delivery slip provided in advance with a code of about 12 digits consisting of numbers, alphabets, symbols, or combinations thereof, for example, the name of the requester (sender) and destination, postal code, address, telephone number, Contents etc. are written by the client and affixed to the package. The contracted store of the delivery company that brought in the package with the delivery slip calculates the delivery fee from the address, zip code, size of the package, etc. described in the delivery slip, and receives it. On the other hand, since such packages are once transported to a designated collection and delivery base that has jurisdiction over the area regardless of the delivery destination, there is no need to sort the packages according to the delivery destination etc. at the contract store. Do nothing in particular.

  At the first collection / delivery base, the code of the package delivery slip is registered in the delivery management system. Thereafter, this code is used as a package identification code for tracking the package by the delivery management system. At the first collection / delivery base, the final collection / delivery base having jurisdiction over the delivery destination is visually found from the address of the delivery destination of the delivery slip, or from the postal code or telephone number of the delivery slip, and the means of transportation (regular flights) And sort the luggage. When the package is relayed at each passing collection and delivery base, the package identification code of the delivery slip is sent to the delivery management system. After the package identification code of the delivery slip is sent from the final collection / delivery base to the delivery management system, when the driver delivers the package to the destination, the package identification code of the delivery slip and the end of delivery are sent to the delivery management system by a portable terminal or the like. In this way, in the delivery management system, it is possible to grasp where the package is currently located at the collection / delivery base by the package identification code, and the sender and the recipient of the destination can be checked by the Internet service or the like. .

  By the way, many new businesses using the above delivery slip have been proposed. For example, since a delivery slip attached to a package touches the eyes of at least two people, the requester and the destination, the advertisement has a higher effect than DM (direct mail) that can be seen only by the destination. It can be used as a medium.

  For example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a delivery slip having such an advertisement function. More specifically, a predetermined advertisement is printed in advance on the delivery slip, and the delivery slip is directly delivered to the client by hand or mail from the delivery company entrusted with the delivery of the package. The requester describes the predetermined slip information as described above on the delivery slip, affixes it to the package, and requests the delivery company to deliver the package.

  Further, in Patent Document 3, after connecting the client and the delivery management system of the delivery company via the Internet, the necessary information is sent to the delivery management system, and then the slip information is returned to the requester and delivered at home or the like. A system for printing is disclosed. In this system, “unique print data” such as an advertisement is extracted from a database and printed on a delivery slip together with slip information.

  The delivery slip provided with the advertisement function can naturally touch the eyes of at least two persons of the requester and the destination in order to confirm the description items related to the delivery of the delivery slip. If this advertisement reflects the client and destination, for example, destination location information, interest information, etc., it becomes a more effective advertising medium, and the advertising cost can be set high, In return, it can be returned to the client to reduce the delivery cost.

  Here, in the delivery slips disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, since the advertisement is printed in advance, and the destination information is described after receiving the advertisement, the advertisement is included in the package destination information described in the advertisement. You cannot choose based on. Further, in the system disclosed in Patent Document 3, an advertisement can be selected based on the information on the package destination. However, it is necessary to update all the delivery management systems, and the overall efficiency is inferior. Furthermore, as described above, the current delivery management system does not register the requester and destination information from the viewpoint of personal information protection. However, in the system disclosed in Patent Document 3, information for reflecting the requester and the destination is not provided. Management requires measures to protect personal information and is inefficient.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and its purpose is to provide a highly effective advertising function in an advertising business using a delivery slip without reducing efficiency, The present invention provides a system capable of returning the consideration for the description of the advertisement on the delivery slip to the client.

  The present invention separates the delivery delivered to the delivery location designated by the client from the delivery management system of the delivery company that can hand over the package to the delivery company and return the consideration described in the specific information on the delivery slip to the client. A delivery handover system provided as described above, a recording means for recording requester information from the requester, a receiving means for receiving the delivery destination information of the package together with requester information for identifying the requester, Specific information selection means for selecting the specific information based on delivery destination information; and a package specification that is issued by the delivery management system and attached to the package and then registered in the delivery management system to identify the package Along with the code, the selected specific information is returned to the client, and the delivery destination information, the package specific code and the specific information are printed as the delivery slip. Characterized in that it comprises a return means.

  According to this invention, since the client only inputs and transmits the slip information including the delivery destination information, the time and effort for writing the slip are almost the same. Further, since the delivery takeover system (server) is provided separately from the delivery management system (server) of the delivery company, the delivery management system of the delivery company is not changed. That is, it is efficient for both the client and the delivery company. In addition, since an advertising business using a delivery slip printed with specific information based on package delivery destination information can be performed, it is possible to conduct a business that reduces the cost of delivery by reducing the cost of advertising description for high advertising effectiveness to the client It becomes. Furthermore, since personal information is handled by a delivery handover system that is separated from a public delivery management system that is open to the public where the package is currently located on the Internet, it is excellent in protecting personal information. Here, in order to be able to return the consideration described in the specific information on the delivery slip to the client, it is also necessary that the advertiser is able to confirm that the delivery has been completed after the advertisement is attached to the package. According to this invention, although the delivery handover system is provided separately from the delivery management system of the delivery company, since the package identification code is shared by both systems, the advertiser completes the delivery from the package identification code via the delivery management system. Can be confirmed.

  In the above-described invention, the specific information selection unit may select the specific information based on a delivery location in the delivery destination information. According to this invention, since it is possible to send information more useful for the destination, a highly effective advertising function can be provided.

  In the above-described invention, the present invention may further include a package identification code acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of the package identification codes from the delivery management system. According to this invention, since the parcel identification code can be immediately shared between the delivery takeover system and the delivery management system, even if the delivery takeover system is an operating body different from the delivery company, it can be efficiently operated.

  In the above-described invention, the return means may print the delivery slip on a medium distributed in advance to the client. According to this invention, the delivery slip can be easily managed, and forgery of the delivery slip can be prevented, so that efficient operation can be performed.

  Furthermore, the present invention provides a delivery management system for the delivery company that can hand over the package delivered to the delivery location designated by the client to the delivery company and return the consideration described in the specific information on the delivery slip to the client. A delivery slip printing program for use in a delivery handover system provided separately from the delivery routine, an input routine for receiving at least input of delivery destination information of the package, and the delivery destination information together with the requester information The selected identification information is received together with a transmission routine to be transmitted to the package and a package identification code which is issued by the delivery management system and attached to the package and then registered in the delivery management system to identify the package. Reception routine and printing for printing the delivery destination information, the package identification code and the identification information as the delivery slip Characterized in that it comprises a routine, a.

  According to this invention, since the client only inputs the slip information including the delivery destination information on the delivery slip printing program, the trouble is almost the same as that of the conventional slip. In addition, since the delivery takeover system is provided separately from the delivery management system of the delivery company, the delivery management system of the delivery company is not changed. That is, it is efficient for both the client and the delivery company. Furthermore, according to this invention, personal information is transmitted and managed to a delivery management system that is separated from a delivery management system that is open to the public and on which the package is currently located on the Internet. Therefore, it is excellent in protecting personal information. Furthermore, according to this invention, it is possible to print a delivery slip on which specific information based on the delivery destination information of the package is printed at the requester's hand, and an effective advertisement that can be seen by at least two of the requester and the destination Can give.

  In the above invention, the printing routine may be a routine for printing the delivery slip on a medium distributed to the client in advance. According to this invention, the delivery slip can be easily managed, the forgery of the delivery slip can be prevented, and efficient operation can be performed.

  In the above-described invention, the delivery slip may be provided with a peeling part that can be peeled off at least partially from the main body, and the printing routine may be a routine for printing the specific information on the peeling part. The specific information printed on the peeled portion can be used separately from the delivery slip and can provide a highly effective advertising function.

  The inventor of the present application has invented a system (server) for taking over delivery of a package to a delivery company that delivers the package to a delivery location designated by the requester according to the delivery slip, that is, the requester creates a delivery slip and the delivery company Invented a system (server) that handles the period until a package delivery request is made, and researched this to arrive at the present invention. Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  First, the system configuration will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a delivery takeover (system) server 10 for taking over delivery of a package to a delivery company 40 includes a storage device 11 and a communication device 12 for connecting to an Internet line 20. Further, it includes a CPU 101, a ROM 102 and a RAM 103 in which programs are stored. Also, a monitor device (not shown) and an input / output device such as a keyboard are connected.

  As will be described in detail later, in the storage device 11 including the hard disk of the delivery takeover server 10, the user database 13 for storing information on the user (requester) 30 requesting delivery of the package, the delivery of the package destination, etc. A slip information database 14 for storing slip information including destination information, a numbering database 15 for storing a package identification code for identifying a package from other packages in the delivery management server 21 of the delivery company 40, and slip information A specific information database 16 for storing specific information such as various advertisements, coupons, and lotteries is included.

  The delivery takeover server 10 is connected to a delivery management (system) server 21 of the delivery company 40 via an existing communication infrastructure such as the Internet line 20. Although only one delivery company 40 is shown here, it can be connected to delivery management servers of a plurality of delivery companies. The delivery takeover server 10 and the delivery management server 21 of the delivery company 40 may be connected by a dedicated line for reasons such as confidentiality of data transmission / reception. On the other hand, a user PC 22 such as a home or a workplace of a user 30 who requests delivery of a package is also connected to the Internet line 20. A printer 23 is connected to the user PC 22.

  Next, the usage flow and program of the above-described system will be described.

  A delivery service flow including the delivery of the package to the delivery company 40 and each program used for the delivery service flow and an overall schematic diagram of the delivery service flow including the delivery of the delivery of the package to the delivery company 40 in FIG. A description will be given with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6 together with a schematic diagram of data input / output.

  2 and 3 together with FIG. 4, in preparation for the delivery takeover service, the administrator of the delivery takeover server 10 collects the package identification code (NS1). That is, the delivery company 40 is selected, an input / output device (not shown) of the delivery takeover server 10 is operated, the delivery management server 21 of the selected delivery company 40 is accessed through the Internet line 21, and a plurality of package identification codes are collected. Request to grant (P1 in FIG. 3).

  Here, the package identification code is a code string that is issued by the delivery management server 21 in advance, sent to the delivery management server 21 after being attached to the package, and identifies the package when collated and registered. In the delivery management server 40, a package identification code that has been issued once cannot be assigned until the end of use is confirmed so that packages with the same package identification code are not simultaneously delivered. In addition, the package identification code is different for each delivery management server 21, that is, for each delivery company 40, and the package identification code issued from one delivery management server 21 is collated and registered in another delivery management server. Never happen.

  If the delivery management server 21 permits the request for giving the package identification code, the package identification code sent through the line is stored in the numbering database 15 (P2 and P2 'in FIG. 3). On the other hand, when the delivery management server 21 does not permit the request to give the parcel identification code, the delivery management server 21 of the delivery company 40 is accessed again at the stage of returning the print information to the user 30 as will be described later. Thus, the package identification code is individually assigned (P2 and P2 ″ in FIG. 3).

  The package identification code may be transferred to and stored in the numbering database 15 by the administrator of the delivery takeover server 10 from the delivery slip given the package identification code and distributed to the service base. In such a case, since the package identification code is described in the delivery slip as a one-dimensional or two-dimensional barcode, a portable terminal reader (not shown) that can read the package identification code is directly or indirectly connected to the delivery takeover server 10. Or via a dedicated line or the like, and it is preferable that the package specific code can be transferred and stored in the numbering database 15 more easily.

  Next, the administrator of the delivery takeover server 10 accepts an advertisement that is desired to be placed on a delivery slip 26 described later (refer to NS2 and AD1 in FIG. 7 as well). Such receptions are collected via a homepage or the like placed on the delivery takeover server 10 and are stored in the advertisement database 16 of the delivery takeover server 10 after giving an advertisement identification code for each advertisement. In addition, advertisements collected off-line, such as paper media, are stored in the advertisement database 16 of the delivery takeover server 10 after being given an advertisement identification code for each advertisement by the administrator of the delivery takeover server 10.

  Here, the advertisement stored in the advertisement database 16 is not only a general advertisement but also, for example, a coupon ticket usable at a predetermined commercial facility, a voucher for a product or service, an admission ticket for a specific event, a product It includes a wide range of specific information related to advertising services, such as QR codes that induce access to websites, video site access rights, etc., membership registration guidance for specific services, and headlines for books and magazines.

  By the way, specific information including general advertisements (hereinafter simply referred to as advertisements) stored in the advertisement database 16 of the delivery takeover server 10 is set by the advertiser so as to be associated with slip information to be described later. It is categorized according to location information or customer information where distribution of desired advertisements is desired, and is made into a database so that it can be searched. For example, for the address of the destination as the delivery destination information, categorize for each commercial facility advertisement belonging to the city, prefecture, etc. to which the address belongs, or category related to the contents requested for delivery. It is divided and can be searched.

  In particular, referring to FIGS. 2 and 3 together with FIGS. 5 and 6, in the delivery handover service, the user first registers the user information (S1, the corresponding processing such as between the delivery handover service and between users is the same symbol). ). The user 30 who wants to use the delivery takeover service by the delivery takeover server 10 sends necessary user information such as name, company name, address, reading thereof, landline and mobile phone numbers, and e-mail address to the HP on the delivery takeover server 10. Is sent to the delivery takeover server 10 using a dedicated form attached to a mail or a dedicated form attached to an e-mail, and user registration is performed. The delivery takeover server 10 that has received such user information searches the user database 13 to check whether the user 30 has already been registered. If not registered, the user information of the user is registered in the user database 13, and an identification name and a password are issued. In the future, the user 30 can access the main HP without searching and confirming the user registration by accessing the gate HP of the delivery takeover server 10 and inputting the identification name and password. 50 downloads and updates, requests for sending the dedicated paper 25, and reference / change of user information are permitted, but such a mechanism is well known and will not be described in detail. On the other hand, if the user 30 has already been registered, a message to that effect is sent back to the user 30 to prompt the user to input an identification name and password that have already been issued.

  Next, the registered user 30 downloads the delivery slip printing program 50 (S2). The delivery takeover server 10 is accessed using the identification name and password to display the main HP, and the delivery slip printing program 50 in the storage slip printing program storage area (not shown) of the storage device 11 can be downloaded to the user PC 22 from the menu. The delivery slip printing program 50 may be downloaded after incorporating a part of the user information of the user database 13. According to this, it is not necessary to input a part of the user information of the user 30 from the first use of the delivery slip printing program 50.

  Next, the user 30 who downloaded the delivery slip printing program 50 sends dedicated paper (S3). That is, when the user 30 requests the delivery of the dedicated paper 25 from the main HP menu, the delivery takeover server 10 that has received the request sends the corresponding address registered in the user database 13 for the user 30 via the administrator. In addition, a dedicated paper 25 in which predetermined information, for example, a service name, a business entity of the service, a name and an address of the user 30, and the like are described is sent by mail. As a result, the dedicated paper 25 can be used only by the user 30 and can be prevented from impersonating others. Such a process may be performed from the delivery slip printing program 50. If a part of the user information of the user database 13 is incorporated into the delivery slip printing program 50, the process of the person can be more surely performed. It can be confirmed. In addition to the special paper, shipping packaging materials such as warning labels, warning labels, packings, envelopes, boxes, etc. may be sent.

  Next, the delivery destination information is input and transmitted by the user 30 (S4). The user 30 activates the delivery slip printing program 50 on the user PC 22 when requesting delivery to the delivery company. The delivery slip printing program 50 prompts the user 30 to input slip information including predetermined delivery destination information, and inputs, for example, an arrival place, a requester (sender) and a destination address, a telephone number, a zip code, and contents. Let The predetermined input may be stored in a predetermined storage area in the user PC 22 so that the same input need not be repeated from the next time. When the slip information is transmitted to the delivery takeover server 10, a confirmation HP is displayed on the user PC 22. When the intention of confirmation is transmitted, the slip information is confirmed, and when canceled or corrected, the slip information is re-input or corrected. it can. Since this is also known, it will not be described in detail.

  In addition, it is possible to implement even an ASP type that transmits input information directly from the user PC 22 to the delivery takeover server 10 without downloading the delivery slip printing program 50 and processing the data. At this time, in association with the user 30, for example, the address of the requester or the destination is left in the history storage database of the delivery takeover server 10 (not shown) so that it can be selected from a list when inputting information, or repeatedly It is also possible to display a predetermined display every time the customer who uses it. Since these are known, they will not be described in detail. As a result, it is possible to save the time and trouble of inputting, and to eliminate the trouble of downloading the delivery slip printing program 50 and the need for update data, thereby further improving the convenience for the user.

  Although not shown, after sending and confirming the slip information, a predetermined questionnaire may be sent from the delivery takeover server 10 to the user PC 22 to obtain questionnaire information. From the contents obtained from the questionnaire information, an advertisement in the advertisement database 16 to be described later can be selected. According to this, an advertisement tailored to the client's preference can be sent.

  Next, an advertisement is selected and print information is created (S5). The delivery takeover server 10 selects advertisements from the advertisement database 16 at random or in a predetermined order according to the received slip information. Further, one package identification code is sequentially selected from the numbering database 15. That is, as described above, from the advertising database 16 that is registered in categories by location information, sales information, etc., for the destination address in the destination information included in the slip information, the city to which the address belongs, Search and select advertisements, coupons, etc. of commercial facilities belonging to or related to prefectures. Further, the selection of specific information may be entrusted to a user (client) 30 who can know the preferences of the destination, or the selection may be made based on the result of the above-described questionnaire. The advertisement or the like is returned to the user PC 22 as print information together with the slip information and the package specific code necessary for creating the slip as specific information combined with the individual identification code.

  Here, as described above, when the package identification code is not assigned to the numbering database 15 or when the package identification code is insufficient, the delivery management server 21 of the delivery company 40 assigns the package identification code individually. receive.

  Next, the user who has received the reply of the print information prints the shipping slip 26 (see FIG. 7) and pastes it on the package (S6). The user PC 22 that has received the reply to the print information prints the slip information, the specific information, the package specific code, and the information about the requester constituting the print information on the dedicated paper 25 (see FIG. 4). In particular, the package identification code is printed as a one-dimensional or two-dimensional barcode, for example, by matching the display form with the reading terminal of the delivery company 40.

  Next, the user carries the package with the shipping slip to the base of the delivery company 40 or a contracted store, or requests the collection, pays a predetermined fee, and requests the exercise company 40 to deliver the package (S7). The delivery company 40 can read the individual identification code encoded in the one-dimensional barcode printed on the delivery slip 26 with a dedicated terminal or the like, and registers this in the delivery management server 21 so that the package identification code is stored. It becomes a package ID on the delivery management server 21. The delivery company 40 delivers the package with the ID consisting of the package identification code under the management of the delivery management server 21, but this is well known and will not be described in detail.

  On the other hand, the delivery takeover server 10 that has transmitted the print information to the user PC 22 sends an advertisement completion notification to the advertiser together with the individual identification code that identifies the advertisement, the delivery company 40, and the package identification code (S7). By receiving this, it can be known that its own advertisement is attached to the delivery slip (AD2). By the way, the advertiser can use the delivery status confirmation service via the Internet, which is a service of the delivery management server 21 (AD3). That is, in such a service, the delivery slip (package) with the advertisement is delivered to the destination using the notified package identification code, and it is impossible to identify the requester or the address of the destination, Since the base of the delivery company 40 that has passed through is known, it is possible to know when and from which area the package with the requested advertisement has moved. In other words, it is excellent in terms of protecting personal information while obtaining necessary information.

  Next, the administrator of the delivery takeover server 10 returns a part of the advertising fee from the advertiser to the user (S9). As a result, the user can obtain the price of the advertisement written on the delivery slip from the advertiser, and the delivery cost can be reduced. As in the present embodiment, it is possible to give an advertisement with a so-called high opening rate by touching the eyes of the client and the delivery destination, so that the advertisement fee can be set large and the return can be increased. Further, if the individual identification code of the advertisement is described in the package, the delivery slip 26 is presented at the package delivery destination, and the advertisement contents described there are used, for example, services provided at the store, sites When participating in a campaign such as the above, an individual identification code (which may be common with a package identification code as will be described later) can be returned to the administrator of the delivery takeover server 10, and the effectiveness of the advertisement can be measured. Therefore, this can be reported to the advertiser or the advertising fee can be subordinated to the result of the effect measurement.

  As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the special paper 25 is a multi-layer sheet having a two-layer structure of a base paper 25a and a release paper 25b, and the upper release paper 25b is attached to the base paper 25a so as to be peelable. It is attached. The special paper 25 is provided with a sewing machine line 27 penetrating two layers so as to be divided into at least two or more delivery slips (individual slips) 26. Each part of the delivery slip 26 is provided with a cut line 29 on the release paper 25b so as to give a release portion 28 that can be peeled off from the mount 25a.

  When the user 30 sets the dedicated paper 25 in the printer 23, the advertisement is printed on the peeling portion 28 and the slip information including the destination information and the package identification code are printed on a portion other than the peeling portion 28 by the delivery slip printing program.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the user 30 separates the printed dedicated paper 25 into individual delivery slips 26 and pastes the delivery slips 26 on a predetermined package.

  As shown in FIG. Attached to the delivery slip 26 described above, a warning label or a warning label, for example, a warning slip 26 'indicating that the contents are cracked, not upside down, or is a precision part. A function may be given to the delivery takeover server 10 and the delivery slip printing program so that printing can be performed. Even in such a case, the same special paper 25 can be used, and the advertisement as the specific information is printed on the peeling portion 28 and the warning content is printed on a portion other than the peeling portion 28.

  As one service provision example in the above-described embodiment, the advertisement in the advertisement database 16 is specified by the advertisement identification code. The advertisement identification code is associated with the package identification code stored in the numbering database 15, that is, attached to the advertisement. The advertisement identification code to be performed may be based on the package identification code. That is, as described later, when a package identification code is selected, a specific advertisement in the advertisement database 16 is selected. According to this, it is possible to provide a service in which the advertisement described in the delivery slip is associated with the package identification code also described in the delivery slip. For example, a lottery is held for a package specific code, and an announcement that the lottery outline and the lottery result of lottery will be announced on a newspaper or a specific HP is made. Such an advertisement identification number is managed so that it is not generated at the same time by the delivery management server 21, and it is difficult for a third party to forge, so even a prize can be used as a highly reliable code string.

  Further, as one service providing example in the above-described embodiment, the client does not directly write information in the delivery slip, but is described via the delivery takeover server 21 or the delivery slip print program 50, so that print information excluding specific information In addition, information regarding the client can be described in a special code or the like that should be a common language between the delivery takeover server 21 and the delivery company 40. According to this, the package can be delivered by the delivery company 40 without the third party knowing the personal information described in the delivery slip. Similarly, when requesting delivery of a package sold online through a specific network site or at an internet auction, the package is requested from the delivery takeover server 21 while performing online sales without an anonymous name. Can be delivered to the user 30.

  Further, as one example of service provision in the above-described embodiment, in the process of returning to the user PC 22 as print information together with the slip information necessary for creating the slip and the package identification code (S5), identification is performed after replying or without replying. You may enable it to upload to main HP of the delivery takeover server 10 accessed using a name and a password. The user 30 can access the main HP at the base of the delivery company 40 or the contract store of the delivery company 40 requesting delivery of the package, print the delivery slip, and similarly attach it to the package.
